With the aim to build bespoke, cloud-native solutions, 288 Group needed niche, top-tier talent that could quickly understand and add to the strong culture that 288 Group had nurtured over the past few years. Before engaging Evolution, 288 Group had struggling with response times and fill times for vacancies. To address this, we made communication with all parties a top priority.

After an initial ‘kick-off’ meeting to exchange specifications for the roles required, we started to shortlist for a two-stage interview process. Working closely with Seemin Suleri, Head of Engineering at 288 Group, and the internal recruitment teams at 288, we quickly identified strong candidates and moved them through internal processes, seeking feedback from both candidate and client at every step.

With ‘around the clock’ communication, we were able to match the intensity of 288 and not only provide multiple strong candidates but also provide a platform for candidate questions to be addressed quickly and efficiently, leading to significantly reduced time to hire. With 288 Group’s growth in mind, we were also keen to be their advocate in the market and help grow their brand as an employer of choice for tech talent. Accessing internal marketing content and working closely with key stakeholders at 288, we were able to take candidates on the 288 Group Journey and accurately describe the wealth of opportunity that came with working at 288.
